Suzaku Fury

Chapter 31 [23 Suzaku Returns]

Di Renjie half-closed his eyes, with one hand behind his back, and the other pinching the goatee on his chin, walking up and down in the courtyard with square steps.

The housekeeper of Fang's mansion put his hands in his sleeves and stared straight at the purple shadow in the courtyard.Every time the old Taoist in the ring clothes took a step, his heart hung a little bit, and the chrysanthemum folds on his face were worried.After a long time, the old Taoist stopped his steps, as if he was making a final conclusion, he stroked his beard and looked at the Western Pieces of the Fuzhong, muttering something in his mouth, then silently looking at the sky and counting his fingers, finally he pulled the gossip hanging on his waist and stretched it across his chest. After making up his mind, he ran away immediately, and was so frightened that he grabbed the hem of his robe and chased after him.

Di Renjie led the people and ran straight to Fang Jian's office, and stopped when he arrived, holding the gossip on his palm, and said with an inscrutable expression: "Big fierce, big fierce..." After finishing speaking, he shook his head again, posing A look of helplessness.

The housekeeper tremblingly asked: "The Taoist priest, according to your opinion..."

Di Renjie put the gossip in front of the steward, and said regretfully: "Your mansion does not open the door of life, but the door of death is wide open. This is a narrow escape. Not only that, but if you are surprised at the end of summer and hurt the second gatekeeper, it will make things worse. It's really dark. Da Luo Immortal has come, but there is nothing he can do about it!"

The housekeeper's old legs were weak from what he said, and he was about to kneel down. Fortunately, Di Renjie gave him a hand, so he could barely stand with his legs shaking.The old man's lips trembled and he asked in a low voice: "According to the Taoist priest, if he is dismissed at this time, can he save his life?"

Di Renjie sighed, and replied: "Old man, if you leave Fang's mansion at this time, you will really lose your medicine."

The housekeeper excitedly said: "Is there any help?!"

"The life and death of everyone in your Fangfu is tied to the two gates of life and death. If you stay far away, you may die early." Di Renjie said deliberately, "You must know that the gate of death declines in summer and flourishes in autumn. And the birth gate is in summer and rests in autumn, as long as the world is turned around before the beginning of autumn, one can avoid catastrophe, the so-called prosperity is still alive. From then on, the family will be safe and prosperous."

The housekeeper's eyes were filled with tears, and he tightly grabbed Di Renjie's arm. From the look on his face, he seemed to regard the yellow and green Taoist priest as a reborn parent.After a long time, I heard him choked up and said: "I beg the Taoist priest to guide the maze!"

Di Renjie knew that the old man had been duped, so he stuffed the gossip in his hand back to his waist, then pinched his fingers and counted, and then he suddenly realized that the gloom on his face was swept away: "It is true, Jimen was killed by Keji. No, the villainous family cannot be suppressed. As the saying goes, the person who untied the bell must tie the bell. I would like to ask, is there a great murderer in the family?"

The butler was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What is it, the culprit?"

Di Renjie cleared his throat, and asked in a low voice, "That's the place... where people died."

The old man was frightened by Di Renjie, his legs softened and he knelt down.Di Renjie quickly helped him up, and said: "A doctor can use medicine to fight poison, and I, Kong Yunzi, can also use fierceness to overcome evil, and turn the world around!"

The old butler was helped up by Di Renjie, his expression was wonderful, he must have been afraid that he would die if he told the truth, and he would die if he didn't tell the truth.After a while, the old man lost his mind, pulled Di Renjie to the corner, glanced left and right, saw that no one was passing by, and said in a low voice: "Master Dao, I'm afraid I'm going to lose my head if I say this, but if I don't Said, the lives of hundreds of people in this Fangfu just... hey! Do evil, do evil!"

The old man sighed with emotion, and then he said: "This happened more than ten years ago. That year, my master went to the Lingnan Guangfu to escort the tribute in person. This trip lasted for more than a month. The master left in a low-key way. When Chang'an was in Chang'an, he only brought a few personal servants with him, and went south with the guards sent from above, but when he came back, besides these people, the master also had a woman of a different race beside him."

As the old man spoke, he suddenly fell silent. His eyes, which had drooping eyelids, widened suddenly, and he said again: "This woman is not simple. She fascinated my master, and disturbed the entire Fang family..."

"A woman from another race?" Di Renjie couldn't help interrupting him. Seeing the old man was taken aback, he pretended to make calculations and asked, "Are you from Linyi?"

The butler was horrified when he heard the words, and called out Di Renjie's supernatural powers: "It's that demon girl from Linyi! I didn't expect that she would tire the family when she was alive, and tire the neighbors when she died."

"How to say?"

The housekeeper choked up his words, and changed from that angry look to timid and timid again: "As soon as the demon girl came to Fangfu, my wife became ill, which made the master even more indifferent to his wife, and just leaned on the witch girl. I don't know what kind of sorcery the witch used to make the master submissive. Fortunately...the witch died within a few months after coming here."

"died?!"

"He died suddenly." The housekeeper's eyes flickered, as if he wanted to hide it, "It was fine the first night, but the next morning, he was found dead on the bed with scratches on his face, which really scared the master who was sleeping next to her." I lost my soul. Afterwards, the master tried his best to suppress the matter, and ordered the people in the mansion not to say anything, and just found a deserted cemetery to bury him. And this can't stop. Since the demon girl left, Xiyuan has caused a lot of trouble For a while..."

Di Renjie asked again: "Haunted?"

The housekeeper recalled the past, and now he still has lingering fears. He grabbed the front of his clothes with withered hands and said: "The witch usually likes to wear white clothes, but after she dies, she still walks through the hall in white clothes, with disheveled hair and a rotten face. Scary!"

"Then is it still haunted now?"

"It's so strange that the ghost of the demon girl suddenly stopped coming!" The old man paused, and then suddenly said: "Master Daoist, look this time, is it the ghost of the witch who is lingering again and wants to murder our Fangfu?" Hundreds of lives?"

Di Renjie stroked his beard and smiled, knowing it already in his heart.At this time, the play was about to continue, so he said: "Please also ask the housekeeper to take me to that fierce place to have a look."

The old man shook his head and said, "The Taoist priest, please." After saying that, he immediately ran ahead.

Di Renjie was led by him to a deserted yard, the yard was overgrown with weeds, the flowers and bamboos planted before were neglected to pruning, and there was an empty and locked house in the innermost part. Know what's inside.

"Sure enough, the evil spirit is so strong!" Di Renjie took a step forward, only feeling the dark wind blowing on his face, and it was almost the beginning of summer, but it made him feel shuddering, "Can I let Pindao enter the house to see what's going on?"

Hearing this, the old man hesitated for a long time before he tremblingly took out a bunch of keys, opened the lock and immediately hid far away, hiding behind a clump of bamboo and shouting to Di Renjie, "Go in and see by yourself, the old man is inconvenient." Accompany."

Di Renjie walked up to the old man, and kindly said: "You may as well give me the lock and key, and I will return it to you after I have finished reading and lock the door, so that you don't have to go near the house again. How about this?"

As if being pardoned, the old Taoist threw what he was holding to Di Renjie like a hot potato.Di Renjie took the things, turned around and walked towards the abandoned house.

The house looked gloomy, but the things inside were not as dilapidated as the yard outside.When Di Renjie passed the round table, he scratched the surface with his fingertips, then raised his fingertips in front of him, and smiled knowingly.He pretended to be pacing up and down the room, and after a while, he took out the gossip stuffed in his waist and put it on the round table, deliberately loudly said: "Those who are fighting in battle, all go forward in groups, seek good luck and avoid evil, and all evils are not evil." Invasion!" When it was over, he went out from the room, finally locked the door, walked up to the housekeeper, and said calmly: "The housekeeper can rest assured now, Pindao has put the gossip in the house, read the formula The formation will definitely turn the tide for your family, turning bad luck into good fortune."

As soon as the old man heard that he was grateful, he was about to kneel down to Di Renjie: "Thank you, Taoist priest, for saving your life. This old man thanked the Taoist priest for the lives of hundreds of people in the Fang family!"

Di Renjie hurriedly pulled him, returned the key to him, and said: "The old man is too polite, but it's just a matter of raising your hands. It's just that this formation is exquisite, easy to cloth and easy to break, so don't let any more vitality enter it, otherwise this house will not be fierce, and it will be difficult to overcome." Bad luck. If this formation is broken again, I'm afraid it will be difficult to save it."

The old man nodded his head as if pounding garlic, and hurriedly agreed: "The matter is of great importance, and this old man will definitely follow the teachings of the Taoist priest."

Di Renjie waved his hands with a smile, then cupped his hands and said goodbye: "Since the formation has been set up and what the poor can do, I will leave now." After saying that, he lifted his legs and left.

"Slow!" The old man yelled behind him, causing Di Renjie to stagger a step.Unexpectedly, the old man rushed up to hold Di Renjie, and said in a hurry: "I will never forget the kindness of the Taoist priest's rebirth. When I report it to my wife, I will reward you with a lot of money."

Knowing that the old man was difficult to deal with, Di Renjie retreated to the next best thing: "Money is something outside the body of the poor. Why don't your house reward the poor master and apprentice with a meal, and we will leave after eating."

The old man secretly praised the old man as an immortal in the sky, he didn't want money to help people eliminate disasters, he must be a rescue soldier sent by heaven, he didn't care about the smelly copper, seeing the old man say so, he rushed to prepare.

With great difficulty, Sha Tuo escaped from a group of crying women, and when he ran to the courtyard of Fangfu, he was like a live fish reentering the river and sea, and he immediately became alive and well.Seeing the easy-going Di Renjie standing with his hands behind his back, he hurried up and opened his mouth to call:

"Di..."

Unexpectedly, Di Renjie glanced at it, and immediately changed his voice, and changed his name to: "The disciple is late, master forgive me."

Di Renjie approached and said in a low voice: "I didn't eat enough when I went out in the morning, so I'll have a meal at his house, and then I'll bring some for you." After that, he walked away a few steps, pretending to speak loudly: "You don't need to be too polite, just go into the inner hall."

Sha Tuo laughed when he heard the words, and followed Di Renjie into the inner hall.

After the two of them had dinner in the Fang mansion like a wind and cloud, and then left the Fang mansion, it was already dark when the lights were on.

The housekeeper sent the two of them away with great gratitude, and led a group of servants who had heard the news to send them off a few steps, but Di Renjie politely refused, so he watched them off instead.

The two were silent all the way, once out of the sight of everyone in the Fang Mansion, they turned around and came to a side alley.In the dark alley, only the snorting of horses can be heard, but you can't see your fingers.

The two quickly changed their clothes, rode on a fast horse, and split up.

In Xu time, at the first watch of the day, the sky street lights were first lit, and there was a lot of people.

The hustle and bustle of the crowd filled Suzaku Tianjie, but only stopped ten feet away from the Suzaku Gate.There are sparse bamboo sheds in front of the Suzaku Gate, and the Yuji Altar has just taken shape, while a group of Jinwu guards are guarding the Suzaku Gate. The usually dimly lit city tower is now brightly lit.

A female officer in a round-necked gown and a black headband put on a cloak and walked to the battlements, respectfully saying: "Queen of Heaven, the night is full of dews."

Wearing a black brocade robe with a stand-up collar and a pair of knives in a half-up bun, Empress Wu stood with her hands behind her back in front of the battlements. When she heard the female officer approaching, she just raised her hand to veto it, then turned around and paced, and asked again: " When will this altar be finished?"

Still holding the cloak in her hand, the female officer followed closely behind, lowered her head and replied, "After returning to heaven, according to the supervisor, the work will be completed in seven days."

"Seven days?" Empress Wu paused, turned around, with a sullen expression on her face: "This altar has been built for almost a month? Waste! Our Chinese navy has arrived in Bohai Sea, and we will reach Xijing in a few days. Could it be?" Want my brave army to wait for him to set up the altar? Absurd! Send an order that if the altar cannot be built within three days, the Ministry of Industry will send another group of people!"

"The minister obeys the order." The female official took the order and hurriedly retreated to pass the order.

Empress Wu snorted coldly, turned around with her hands behind her back, and once again looked at the bustling night market outside Suzaku Gate.She knew that there must be no mistakes in the labor force this time.The altar was moved from the palace to the outside of the imperial city, just to win people's hearts.Unexpectedly, since the preparation for the Rain Sacrifice, everything has gone wrong. First, the Suzaku appeared, and then the officials were ordered to burn to death... All these incidents, one by one, must have been a deliberate trick by those who opposed her.Those rotten scholars just can't understand women in power, they are short-sighted!

Empress Wu stopped her pace, and her thoughts stopped abruptly.Holding on to the battlements with one hand, she leaned forward slightly, then stepped back suddenly, and said loudly, "Come on!"

A group of Jinwu guards obeyed and stood by with their fists clasped.

Empress Wu frowned, raised her hand and pointed: "Send someone there, come back and report after seeing the situation clearly."

"Leader!"

Empress Wu turned slightly to the side, and saw with her own eyes the flame-spitting holy beast leap into the air in the west of the city, and quickly flew out of the city.
